Pat Tillman: Iraq War Illegal and Unjust

Pat Tillman was the poster boy for the US war in Iraq. President Bush heralded him in life as a hero when the young American football player walked away from a multimillion dollar contract to serve in Iraq after the 9/11 attacks, and an even greater hero in death when Tillman was killed in Afghanistan two years later - until it came out that the Pentagon had lied to cover up that his death was from friendly fire.
What Bush did not know was that Tillman regarded him as a "cowboy" who had led the country in to an "illegal and unjust" war in Iraq.

soz if this is insulting to americans, but how the fooooook is he a hero, he was playing on the army football team, and then was ambushed, AND he was shot by one of his own men, i understand that he did certain things to help america, but then again, bill gates supports the poor, but because he made windows he will never be remembered, actually, his grave will be spat on by mac users haha

Sadly, some people are unable to critically think or use logic. Is it fear? Is it destroying their values to consider many could be this evil? Or are they just plain, stupid? I think it is a combination of the media failing us and trolling; by definition, is the way of misleading people who question the truth.

@hmagana well we could impeach bush and cheney for insitigate a war in iraq for no other reason then to save the us dollar since saddam started trading in euros...that would be a start
